howling of the night

shedding of innocent tears

restless--

night after night

two hands on one's ear

endeavoring solace

off fear

you can't stand their shout

their thumping

too willing to pull

you down

go and join them

beneath the mud

they lay howling

as their mother

placed them

in the sewer

running from the past

only for a murky future

leading to irreparable

soul

alone in hell
